Marina Las Hadas

After more than three weeks "on the hook", we decided to check into a Marina. And we found Las Hadas. This is where the movie "10" was filmed. It is across Manzanillo Bay from the commercial port. The spot is lovely, if a bit run-down. However, it is calm at night and we had the best neighbors possible. Richard and Elizabeth were there as we backed in (we had to Med-moor here and that can be tricky in a sailboat). They took our lines and we had a beer while they gave us information about the area.







Frida's is on the Marina grounds. They serve Italian food and have live jazz every Wednesday night. The group that currently plays is "Djang". Djang is made up of two brothers who graduated from the Colima Art College and are dedicated to bringing various music genres to Mexico. They were good and played to an appreciative crowd.

Manzanillo is also a popular sport fishing destination.

Part of our stay was consumed with boat maintenance, including installing a new radar antenna which Ken brought.
